Quote:Krishna said:the far side is so much better than calvin and hobbes!

--------------------The only thing that burns in Hell is the part of you that won't let go of life, your memories, your attachments. They burn them all away. But they're not punishing you, they're freeing your soul. So, if you're frightened of dying and you're holding on, you'll see devils tearing your life away, but if you've made your peace, then the devils are really angels, freeing you from the earth...

I loooove Far Side. You know the one where the Turkey dresses up as the cat and the family's eating the cat stuffed in the turkey? that always made me laugh.

The Far Side and Calvin and Hobbes can't be compared...neither one's better, they're totally their own things

All I really know is that those few years saddled me with a faith in the redemptive potential of the imagination which, however flat, stale and unprofitable the world seems to me now, I cannot for the life of me shake.

I have a book called TRiPS about drugs, and Robert Crumb does a bunch of the drawings in it.

You can't forget Garfield! You got it right about those being up at the top, though. The Far Side rocks! I like the one with the two mosquitos and the one is huge and about to burst, while the other one is saying, "Pull out, Betty! Pull out!! You have hit an artery!"

It's a fun little book that's for sure. There's one page that has 16 different versions of a cartoon character they asked people to draw while on acid, compared with the original sketch that they gave to the people. They're all soooo trippy.

I was getting sheets back in the day that were coming from Dead tour that had the Shakedown Street guy, spinning his pocket watch. Did Crumb draw that guy? I was thinking that he did. That cid was potent, too.
